Plot hole: The movie establishes the narrative that megalodons have been locked beneath a layer of hydrogen-sulfide and that the first sub to penetrate that layer is their own research sub, thus allowing the megalodon to escape the hydrogen-sulfide layer for the first time in modern history. So, how could there be a megalodon present to at the very beginning of the movie, which interfered with the protagonist's rescue efforts?
The Meg (2018)
1 plot hole
Directed by: Jon Turteltaub
Starring: Jason Statham, Rainn Wilson, Robert Taylor, Ruby Rose
Continuity mistake: When Jonas is swimming the tracking gun out to where the Meg is circling, he dunks his head under water to look for the shark. When he surfaces, his earpiece has changed ears. When they cut back to him, it's moved back to the correct ear.
Jonas Taylor: You're going to tell me your story and I'm going to say no. You're going to offer me money and I'm going to say no. You're going to try to appeal to my better nature and I'm still going to say no because I don't have one.
Trivia: When Jonas is swimming out to the meg to shoot it with the tracker he is singing to himself "Just keep swimming, just keep swimming..." This is the same song that Dory sings to Marlin in Finding Nemo.
